Tied by: Jon Harrang
Originated by: Jon Harrang
Hook: Gaelic Supreme Mike Martinek/Carrie Stevens streamer hook size 6, 8XL
Body: Copper mylar (copper-colored saltwater flashabou)
Rib: Oval copper tinsel, small
Belly: Approx. 6 strands of fine peacock herl followed by a small bunch of white bucktail.
Wing: Tied in as 2 separate units with shoulders, with each side consisting of a dark brown saddle hackle flanked on the outside with a Cree-colored India neck hackle.
Shoulder: Mallard flank feather dyed brown
Eyes: Small Jungle Cock
Throat: Schlappen fibers, dark brown
Head: Black Benecchi 12/0
Notes: Jon ties a deadly looking streamer. The cree hackle is a perfect mimic for the par markings on young trout. This is a great little casting steamer. Check out how small the head on the streamer is, I would be happy if my dry flies had heads that tiny.

Long story short
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
